If you’re not huge on spiciness, you can remedy that by removing more of the pith and rib when slicing. Whether you leave them really spicy or tone down the heat level, this is a fun way to dress up jalapenos!

JALAPENOS – Find nice large jalapenos and cut them into long strips that are about the thickness of small fries. You could also slice the jalapeno into rounds and cook them this way sort of like air fryer fried pickles.

BUTTERMILK – If you don’t have buttermilk, you can add a tablespoon of vinegar to a cup of milk then let it sit for 5 minutes.

Jalapeno fries are best served right away, but if you have leftovers, store them in an air-tight container or zip-top baggie in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. To reheat, place them back in the air fryer for a couple of minutes until crispy and warmed through.

Serve jalapeno fries hot and fresh from the air fryer with dipping sauces like ranch, chipotle or southwest ranch and bleu cheese. You could slice your jalapenos into circles, remove the seeds, and dredge in the coatings for crispy jalapeno rounds as well, but you will need to keep an eye on the cook time as these are smaller and will cook up quicker!

You can use baked fries, frozen frozen fries (cooked) or freshly fried fries to make cheese fries. Top the cooked fries with shredded cheese. I like using mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Toss the fries lightly. Top with pickled jalapeños then place in a hot oven. Allow to bake for 7-10 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the oven, scatter with chopped chives and more freshly chopped chillies then serve.

Slice large potatoes into fries then toss with vegetable oil (I used canola) and salt. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake at 200ºC/390ºF until crisp and golden. I give them a flip half way through to make sure they all crisp evenly.

A mixture of a good melting cheese and a strong cheese for flavor is ideal. Mozzarella, Fontina and Raclette are all great melting cheeses. For flavor, try a good strong, mature cheddar or Gruyere. Parmesan and Pecorino are also good additions.
